A New Season!

After a summer of varied music-making, reading and travel, we're back at it on the TMT front! I hope that you enjoy our subtle new look and the "tag line" under our logo: the arts in fusion. We are in the middle of our subscription drive now. I'm really proud of the season we've put together. It should be a diverse, fun and moving collection of performances. We're still putting the pieces together for the Muses show in November. I will write more about that process in the coming days. Our idea is to examine the nine ancient muses from various angles and to involve film, spoken word and improvised music to look at where we find inspiration today. I'm very excited that Marie-Nathalie will be dancing to La Muse de l'Opera, sort of mirroring Teri as she sings. I will post more information about that strange and fabulous solo cantata by Cleramabult. It will certainly be a central part of this program.

As always, I'm encouraging people to pass the word about TMT! It's a labour of love for us and a fascinating ongoing investigation into the wonderful ways the performing arts can be fused.

Lastly, I want to congratulate Roger D. Moore. He will be recognized in mid-October at The Rubies, Opera Canada's annual awards night, for his amazing philanthropic spirit. He has been a generous support of opera in Toronto for many years now and, truly, TMT would not exist were it not for his encouragement and largesse. Congratulations, Roger!!
